Cybersecurity for the Finance Professional - Women in Business Discussion Group Tuesday 26 February 2019


For our first event of 2019, we are excited to welcome Richard Watson, Lead Partner APAC Cyber Advisory at Ernst & Young to present Cybersecurity for the Finance Professional.



At a time when cyber risk is becoming one of the most talked about topics in boardrooms and executive teams, it is important as a finance professional to be across the latest developments in cybersecurity and have an awareness of what organisations across Australia are doing to address this risk.  Richard will talk us through some of the most pressing cyber threats out there, give an overview of what Australia’s largest organisations are doing to tackle the problem, and highlight some of the pointers for assessing a cyber uplift investment case.



Richard is the lead Partner in EY’s APAC Cyber practice.  He has spent the majority of his 25 year career in the professional services and IT sectors focused on Cyber Risk and Cyber Security.



Richard specialises in helping clients understand and protect themselves from the risk of cyber incidents.  His areas of expertise include cyber risk assessment, technologies for monitoring and protecting against cyber attack, privacy regulations and managing cyber incident response.



Richard has worked in a number of industries, focusing on those that have significant intellectual property to protect, a significant risk of brand damage from a cyber incident or whose core operations see them dependent on the digital ecosystem.



Originally from the UK, Richard is based in Sydney but operates throughout the Asia Pacific region.
